I have an problem with restoring backup making by TWRP.
I had B135 stock ROM fully functionally. I made many backups by TWRP 2.8.0.0 to SD card.
Yesterday I install custom ROM MIUI 5 for testing. Today I need to restore previous ROM from TWRP backup and its failed on DATA section. BOOT and SYSTEM sections is restoring successfully but DATA fail just on start ! No more info displaying. I have tried three different backups and always its failed on DATA section.
I should mention that the TWRP restoration of MIUI ROM works correctly in its entirety.
Any idea to solve this problem ?

You can install it from any OS on which you can install adb and fastboot, so w8.1 is included.

Steps are pretty much the same as when you're installing TWRP, so I assume you have all the necessary software and drivers installed.
Connect device to your PC, remember to have USB debugging on.
Fire up your device in bootloader mode (adb reboot bootloader)
Flash recovery.img from https://mega.co.nz/#!P8IGWBpL!7YVCaAoc8AYFbbXGVVjGtjnL0B9jBih9h35qqX4lIpg this package with fastboot (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
Reboot your device - you will have stock recovery now (fastboot reboot)
Now you can flash official roms
Copy over a new rom (update.app) to /dload folder on your device
Run local update
That's about it
i would extract the recovery.img from the firmware that you want with "huawei update extractor"
Or simply use this tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc...eandadjust-t2941186/post56774286#post56774286
Stock Recovery .img is includet.
If you have questions, ask me.

Can't find device listed in app
Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't find the device listed in the app to install the recovery.
I ran CF-auto, then rebooted and installed the TWRP app and busybox, granted permissions, but I don't see the device listed. Did I do something wrong?
I checked for "Nexus 6", "Shamu", and "Motorola Nexus" and couldn't find anything. Sorry if this is a noob question and I'm missing something easy.
Its possible that the app hasn't been updated to include shamu. Just download it from their website and manually flash it via bootloader mode. But then again I see the app has been updated, follow the instructions
http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/270
Edit: Someone in the thread confirmed its not in the app yet. Manually fastboot flash it.
Done!
Thanks for the speedy reply!

I'm flashing twrp with fastboot, but the recovery will not stick. I'm not rooted. I flash tarp recovery, reboot the boot loader, go into twrp recovery, select reboot system. When I try to get into recovery again, I just get the stock recovery. Any help? If I rename tarp recovery to recovery.IMG and flash it will this perhaps eliminate this backup recovery.img I'm having a problem with?
Solution: in /system rename the file recovery-from-boot.p to something else. This will allow the recovery to stick. I flashed twrp. Within TWRP I used twrp options to: mount the system then used twrps file manager to rename the file.

TWRP not 'sticking'
Another user mentioned earlier in this thread that TWRP isn't persistent, and recovery reverts to stock after a full reboot. Anyone else seeing this? Any tips on avoiding it?

This is not true. I unlocked bootloader, rooted, and flashed TWRP on Thanksgiving day. The TWRP image that I downloaded from their site is most definitely 2.8.2.1, and is for Shamu.
And it works just fine for me. Wiping, flashing, etc.

I am also having issues with flashing ROMs. I am able to backup/restore with no issues. I was barely able to get Euphoria-OS installed (home screen wasn't setup correctly after first boot). I am going to reflash back to stock and start over again. Is there anyone else with this issue? I do have the 64gb T-mo variant.
Is anyone else having an issue with the vibration? I flashed the most current build and I can't disable it. There should be 3 sliders in the menu but I only have 2 and the one to disable vibration is gone and it just says "80". I would really appreciate any help with this
I also tried flashing other builds for shamu with the same issue.
Nexus 6 Can someone help please! I'm trying to restore backup and its restoring but it stuck restoring @962 [email protected] data part. Its been stuck on that stage for awhile now
I'm not sure what happened either. I installed the 2.8.2.0 image, but ended up with 2.8.2.1. Flashed back to stock recovery, reinstalled twrp 2.8.2.0, and again it's 2.8.2.1.. It hangs forever when flashing roms.. I would love a flashable 2.8.2.0 zip.

Anyone gotten a bootloop from wiping the cache?
So I tried to update with the twrp app and got a notification that instructed me to double check that the correct partition path is "dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery".
I looked through es browser and found that file, but wanted to double check that I won't ruin anything my continuing.

how to update TWRP if stock on bootloop
my situation:
nexus 5
(android 4.4.2)
rooted
encrypted (i have set a pattern to unlock)
TWRP 2.6.3.4.
Xposed module (not sure which version or if it is relevant at all)
suddenly, while i was surfing the twitter app, the phone restarted and attempted to install an update (not sure if it was 4.4.3 or 5.0).
The phone went into bootloop. I held the power button and volume down and this took me into bootloader. from there i started TWRP. I was greeted with "please enter your password". I entered my pattern following the below arrangement
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
after several attempts which always ended with "Password failed. Please try again" i hit "cancel". This took me to the main TWRP screen. I hit "mount" to find the following..
"Select Partition to Mount:"
[ ] System
[ ] Cache
[ ] Persist
[ ] firmware
[ ] USB-OTG
below them there is a line that says "Storage: Internal Storage (0 MB)"
below that it says "Decrypt Data". If i touch it, it asks to enter my password. Again, i enter my password and it says password failed.
The log has this:
Updating Partition details...
E:Unable to mount ' /cache'
E:Unable to mount ' /persist'
E:Unable to mount storage
E:Unable to mount ' /cache'
E:Unable to mount ' /cache'
E:Failed to decrypt data.
IMHO, i think that i need to have TWRP 2.8.2.0 at least in order to decrypt my data as previous versions don't support decryption and/or pattern passwords. Am i right?
if so, how can i update TWRP to the latest version ? can it be updated from within TWRP itself ?

In my haste to unlock and root, i did the same thing when I got my shamu back in December. After you unlock, you have to boot into android once, "fastboot reboot", then go back to the bootloader and fastboot flash recovery. There might be an easier way, but I just downloaded and flashed the factory images to correct my derp.

I want to encrypt my phone, but when I do it nothing happens. Screen goes black, I waited for 5hrs .. still black screen.
I rebooted normally & saw in settings that device is not encrypted.
I am guessing this is happening because of TWRP.
Can anyone please upload stock recovery for above mentioned Android version?
Thank You.

Also, can I flash Stock Nougat (using fastboot) after this? And is there any chance of my device being hardbricked?

No! you cant flash a full nougat rom with fastboot.
Bootloader cant be downgraded!
for hardbricked phones you have first to boot it using the sdcard img.
then when you get bootloader working without sdcard, can use this tutorial

I successfully rolled back to 7.1 using this method. No errors or issues. Everything worked flawlessly. A big thank you @vaserbanix

1. Oreo Battery drains considerably faster than 7.1. (But charges faster too)
2. Fingerprint unlocks slower than 7.1
3. Lags slightly when doing intensive tasks.
Now we need a maintainer for (a) Nougat rom(s)..

LOS14.1 has been updated:
NEW BUILD: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid...63190603848665
Change log: November 18 Security Update
NOTE: Like so many other users, I too updated my device with OREO and stuck with that. I haven't tried downgrading it because I don't want to end up with a hard-bricked device once again. Point here is the new build is not tested. So please take a TWRP backup before using this build. Don't forget to post me even if works fine.
Thanks,
KS

Fantastic tutorial, vaserbanix. Thank you!
Does anybody know where can I get a nougat stock rom TWRP flashable? There is a thread with stock roms but all of them are only flashable via Fastboot...
I would like to get this in particular: [MONTANA_NPP26.102-49-14]

Thank you so much for your feedback, ShattrdChain! :good:
May I know what rom did you use for flashing with this method?
And do you know if bootloader needs to be unlocked in order to downgrade with this guide?
TWRP method doesn't work (bootloop), pls fix or delete.

Its works great.
You can also use fastboot to downgrade!
can the downgrade be done without the bootloader unlocked?
the methods don't work for xt1799-2!
